  • overexpression of AGT in tumour cells enables them to acquire drug resistance, particularly to alkylating drugs such as procarbazine, dacarbazine, temozolomide and bis-2-chloroethyl-N-nitrosourea
  • inhibitors of AGT have been proposed for use as sensitisers in chemotherapy [Pegg et al., 1995].
  • DE 199 03 895 A discloses an assay for measuring levels of AGT which relies on the reaction between biotinylated O 6 -alkylguanine-derivatives and AGT which leads to biotinylation of the AGT.
  • the assay is suggested for monitoring the level of AGT in tumour tissue, adjusting treatment using AGT inhibitors as sensitisers in chemotherapy and for use in screening for AGT inhibitors.
  • the present invention provides a method for detecting a protein of interest in vitro or in vivo , in vivo meaning in bacterial or eukaryotic cells, in cell culture or in cell extracts, in a cell in all the compartments of a cell, on the surface of a cell or AGT fusion proteins pointing to the extracellular space, which comprises contacting an expressed fusion protein comprising the protein of interest and an O 6 - alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT) with a substrate having a label so that the AGT transfers the label from the substrate to become covalently bonded to the expressed fusion protein to permit detection thereof, wherein the substrate is a labelled benzyl guanine substrate represented by the general formula: wherein

  • AGT O 6 -alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase
  • a method of manipulating a fusion protein comprising protein of interest and an O 6 -alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT), the method comprising contacting the fusion protein with a substrate having a particular label as defined hereinbefore so that the AGT transfers the label so that it is covalently bonded to the fusion protein and manipulating the fusion protein using a physical and/or chemical property introduced by the label to the fusion protein.

  • a method of immobilising a fusion protein comprising protein of interest and an alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (AGT) on a solid support comprising contacting the fusion protein with a substrate having a label which is attachable to a solid support, wherein the AGT transfers the label so that it is covalently bonded to the fusion protein which thereby can be subsequently attached to the solid support.
  • the method may involve the further step of contacting the labelled fusion protein with the solid support so that it becomes immobilised on the solid support.
  • the label may be covalently attached to the solid support in a subsequent reaction, or may be one member of a specific binding pair, the other member of which is attached or attachable to the solid support, either covalently or by any other means (e.g. using the specific binding pair of biotin and avidin or streptavidin).
  • AGT fusion proteins both in vivo as well as in vitro .
  • the term in vivo labelling of a AGT fusion protein means labelling in all compartments of a cell as well as of AGT fusion proteins pointing to the extracellular space. If the labelling of the AGT fusion protein is done in vivo and the protein fused to the AGT is a plasma membrane protein, the AGT part of the fusion protein can be either attached to the cytoplasmic or the extracellular side of the plasma membrane. If the labelling is done in vitro , the labelling of the fusion protein can be either performed in cell extracts or with purified or enriched forms of the AGT fusion protein.
  • the protein of interest fused to the AGT comprises a DNA binding domain of a transcription factor or an activation domain of a transcription factor, a target substance or library of target substances is linked to the other of the DNA binding domain or the activation domain of the transcription factor, and the label is a candidate compound or library of candidate compounds suspected of interacting with the target substance(s).
  • the method may further comprise transferring the candidate compound or library of candidate compounds to the AGT protein fusion and contacting the AGT fusion protein(s) labelled with the candidate compounds and the target substance(s) so that the interaction of a candidate compound joined to the AGT fusion protein and a target substance activates the transcription factor.
  • the activated transcription factor can then drive the expression of a reporter which, if the method is carried out in cells, can be detected if the expression of the reporter confers a selective advantage on the cells.

  • the AGT is an O 6 -alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase, for example human O 6 -alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase which is described in Pegg et al. 1995 and references therein.
  • other alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferases are known, e.g.
  • O 6 -alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase also includes variants of a wild-type AGT which may differ by virtue of one or more amino acid substitutions, deletions or additions, but which still retain the property of transferring a label present on a substrate to the AGT or the protein or peptide with which it forms a fusion.
  • variants of AGTs may be chemically modified using techniques well known to those skilled in the art.
  • AGT variants may be produced using protein engineering techniques known to the skilled person and/or using molecular evolution to generate and select new O 6 -alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferases.
  • the reference to the protein part of the fusion protein with the AGT is intended to include proteins, polypeptides and peptides of any length and both with and without secondary, tertiary or quaternary structure. Examples of applications of the present invention are provided below.
  • the labelled substrate is a labelled benzylguanine substrate, and preferably is an O 6 -benzylguanine derivative.
  • An example of such a derivative is an O 6 -benzylguanine derivative that is derivatised at the 4-position of the benzyl ring with the following general formula: wherein:
  • the label part of the substrate can be chosen by those skilled in the art dependent on the application for which the fusion protein is intended.
  • Examples of labels include:
  • the following applications of the present invention are provided by way of examples and not limitation.
  • the method disclosed herein is generally applicable to a range of applications and is capable of specifically and covalently labelling fusion proteins with (1) labels which are capable of sensing and inducing changes in the environment of the labelled fusion protein and/or (2) labels which aid in manipulating the fusion protein by the physical and/or chemical properties specifically introduced by the label to the fusion protein.
  • the method disclosed herein can be used to label AGT fusion proteins both in vivo and in vitro .
  • the present invention is based on the realisation that specific attachment of a label to a desired protein could be carried out by constructing a fusion protein between that protein of interest and taking advantage of the mechanism of an O 6 -alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase such as human DNA repair enzyme O 6 -alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (hAGT).
  • O 6 -alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase hAGT
  • This enzyme irreversibly transfers the alkyl group from its substrate, O 6 -alkylguanine-DNA, to one of its cysteine residues ( Figure 1 ).
  • a substrate analogue that rapidly reacts with hAGT is O 6 -benzylguanine, the second order rate constant being approximately 10 3 sec -1 M -1 ( Figure 1 ).
  • the labelling of the endogenous AGT of the host is advantageously taken into account. If the endogenous AGT of the host does not accept O 6 -benzylguanine derivatives or related compounds as a substrate, the labelling of the fusion protein is specific. In mammalian cells (human, murine, rat), labelling of endogenous AGT is possible. In those experiments where the simultaneous labelling of the endogenous AGT as well as of the AGT fusion problem poses a problem, previously described AGT-deficient cell lines can be used [Kaina et al., 1991].
  • the present invention can be employed in all applications of the technique were the covalent and specific attachment of a label to a AGT fusion protein is used to monitor or influence the behaviour of the AGT fusion protein or is used to manipulate the AGT fusion protein by virtue of the introduced label. Examples of applications for the use of this technology follow.

  • the present invention to be used to specifically and covalently attach the detectable label to the AGT fusion protein, either in a cell, on the surface of a cell ( in vivo ) or in vitro .

  • the term in vivo includes labelling in all compartments of a cell as well as of AGT fusion proteins pointing to the extracellular space.
  • AGT substrates such as O 6 -benzylguanine derivatives
  • an affinity tag such as biotin
  • the AGT fusion protein can be released from the affinity tag after its isolation.
  • AGT substrates such as O 6 -benzylguanine derivatives
  • AGT-protein fusions which are capable of generating reactive radicals, such as hydroxyl radicals, upon exposure to an external stimuli.
  • the generated radicals can then inactivate the AGT fusion proteins as well as those proteins that are in close proximity of the AGT fusion protein, allowing the study the role of these proteins.
  • labels are tethered metal-chelate complexes that produce hydroxyl radicals upon exposure to H 2 O 2 and ascorbate, and chromophores such as malachite green that produce hydroxyl radicals upon laser irradiation.
  • CALI chromophore assisted laser induced inactivation
  • the chromophore is brought in the spatial neighbourhood of the protein of interest by microinjecting chromophore-labelled antibodies specific to the protein of interest.
  • labelling AGT fusion proteins with chromophores such as malachite green and subsequent laser irradiation would allow to inactivate the AGT fusion protein as well as those proteins that interact with the AGT fusion protein in a time-controlled and spatially-resolved manner.
  • the method can be applied both in vivo or in vitro .
  • AGT fusion proteins can be labelled with tethered metal-chelates and the AGT fusion protein and those proteins that interact with the AGT fusion protein can be inactivated in a specific manner upon exposure to H 2 O 2 and ascorbate.
  • the method can not only be used to study the function of an AGT fusion protein or those that are in close proximity of the AGT fusion protein, but also to identify those proteins that are in close proximity of a AGT fusion protein.
  • proteins which are in close proximity of the AGT fusion protein can be identified as such by either detecting fragments of that protein by a specific antibody, by the disappearance of those proteins on a high-resolution 2D-electrophoresis gels or by identification of the cleaved protein fragments via separation and sequencing techniques such as mass spectrometry or protein sequencing by N-terminal degradation.
  • AGT substrates such as O 6 -benzylguanine derivatives
  • labelled AGT substrates such as O 6 -benzylguanine derivatives
  • binding partners of the ligand such as proteins
  • the label is a ligand which is capable of binding to a binding partner
  • contacting such a substrate with a AGT fusion protein will lead to specific attachment of the ligand to the fusion protein.
  • the ligand binds to another protein Y and the dimerization of the protein Y with the labelled AGT fusion protein leads to a biological function or a measurable signal, the biological function or the measured signal depends on the addition of the AGT substrate carrying the label.
  • a specific example would be the use of AGT substrates and AGT fusion protein in the so-called three-hybrid system described by Ho et al., 1996, to regulate gene expression with small molecules.
  • AGT is fused to the DNA-binding domain of a transcription factor.
  • a protein Y such as FKBP that binds a ligand, such as FK506, is fused to the activation domain of a transcription factor. Supplying the cells with the AGT substrate that carries the ligand, in this example FK506, will lead to the formation of a functional transcription factor and gene expression.
  • O 6 -benzylguanine derivatives or related AGT substrates that carry a label and where the label is a drug or a biological active small molecule that binds to an yet unidentified protein Y.
  • the goal would be to identify the target protein Y of the biological active molecule.

If gene expression is coupled to a selective advantage, the corresponding host carrying the plasmid with the target gene Y of the drug or bioactive molecule can be identified.
  • O 6 -benzylguanine or related AGT substrates that carry a label and where the label is a library of chemical molecules the goal would be to identify small molecules that bind to a protein Y under in vivo conditions, which might be a potential drug target.
  • AGT is fused to the DNA-binding domain of a transcription factor.
  • the target protein Y is fused to the activation domain of a transcription factor.
  • Adding a library of small molecules attached as label to a O 6 -benzylguanine derivative will lead to the formation of a functional transcription factor and gene expression only in the case where the label (i.e. the small molecule) binds to its target protein Y fused to the activation domain. If gene expression is coupled to a selective advantage, those molecules of the library leading to the growth of the host can be identified.
  • the label is biotin and the molecule attached to the surface is streptavidin or avidin.
  • a carrier would be either a glass side, a microtiter plate or any functionalized polymer.
  • the immobilization of the AGT substrate via its label allows the subsequent immobilization of a AGT fusion protein on the carrier by the transfer of the label to the fusion protein.
  • Spotting (different) AGT fusion proteins in a spatially resolved manner on the carrier allows the creation of protein arrays.
  • O 6 -benzylguanine derivatives or related AGT substrates which carry a label and where the label is a molecule that can cross-link to other proteins.
  • cross-linkers are molecules containing functional groups such as maleimides, active esters or azides and others known to those proficient in the art and described in Nadeau et al., 2002.
  • AGT substrates with AGT fusion proteins that interact with other proteins ( in vivo or in vitro ) can lead to the covalent cross-linking of the AGT fusion protein with its interacting protein via the label. This allows the identification of the protein interacting with the AGT fusion protein.
